Ive noticed a few WIP aosp roms for our S5's but they all either 4.4.3 or 4.4.4, why not base aosp on 4.4.2 because source codes are easier to obtain, be less bugs and most things should be fixed. Its only an idea, i would delvelop this myself but dont have the complete knowledge to do so... who agrees 4.4.2 should be the base?
We'll take whatever we get. 4.4.4 is the newest, so I'm sure everyone wants that. And developers don't like developing for outdated software.
But hell, if an AOSP 4.0 ROM came out I'd probably install it.
I saw a CM commit that someone's working on the S5 camera. I think the camera and GPS were the big deal-breakers, so it sounds like progress is being made.
As soon as there's a stable CM, hopefully the floodgates will open and I can get back on Liquid or PAC.
The cm camera and gps issues have been on going since the release of the S5 back in may, maybe just down grading to 4.4.2 would be the right idea after all most of the roms our for S5 are 4.4.2 anyways no one is compiling 4.4.3 or 4.4.4 roms at this moment unless its based of a non working CM, so go to 4.4.2 make a AOSP from that source and everyones happy its only an idea of a way forward
Camera still doesn't works even if you use AOSP 4.4.2 sources because Samsung doesn't publish the camera driver sources so it doesn't matter which Android (AOSP) version they use as a base because the CM devs still have to "hack" the camera until it works. One thing that maybe can help is an S5 Google Edition with stock android on it.

The AOSP and cyanogen Roms which are available all of them have camera issues and other bugs. Why is it so?
Is it impossible to run AOSP on s4 i9500? If yes, then why so?
Is it because developers are slacking and just dont want to make a AOSP custom rom for s4 i9500 or there is something which limits developer from making AOSP avialable for s4 i9500. maybe samsung hasnt given tools or drivers to developers.
All the custom roms available for s4 i9500 . They all have written at the end of the thread that The rom is based on Stock firmware.
What is a firmware? Isnt it same as kernel?
Yeah I know I am total noob.

Don't panic, I can see ROMs based on AOSP here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9500-develop
I have personally never seen a i9500 so I beleive they are just not that common or shipped to countries where there is a lack of devs. How about cooking your own? I've started to develop my own ROM which I'm using right now.
Firmware is a full system
The kernel also partly firmware
The kernel is the core of android
If no kernel will not boot
Note: sorry if i am wrong
I9500 has an exynos chipset which had been looked down by Samsung. This has been the case since the Galaxy S2. AOSP Roms exist for the i9500 but they won't be the most stable things you will try, so you are better off staying with the original software or a rom based on the original software.

Developing your own ROM is cool thing. That's what I will be doing after my next month exams.. I dont actually own a s4 i9500 but my cousin has it. I have xolo a500s. It's pretty looking device. I would like to port 4.4 kitkat AOSP rom on it.. :victory:

Thanks for replying. I think you are right. Firmware = rom + kernel.

Yeah that's it. Samsung doesn't share the full source code of it's exynos chip. half of the sourcecode is closed source. They just don't give the full source code to the developers. That's why developers fail to make custom kernels and roms.
But now I wonder why do samsung do this? Maybe they dont want other phone makers to know their unique performance tweaks which they have put in sourcecode.
Lesson learnt never buy Exynos powered device. Always try to get snapdragon powered device.
So, @neXus PRIME wants to make a locked bootloader-compatible ROM, aside from his wonderful AOSPA port. Now it's your choice, so choose the ROM you want carefully.
Huh one choice...
But one is not enough .-.
I know, but my hard disk space is not enough.
I have currently PA and aokp sources.
I am planning to replace aokp sources with the one you guys pick here. I can do a third too but then i will have to delete ccache space... But that is not good.
I'd like to see MIUI get updated to the latest version and see how that runs on our device because the MIUI interface itself looks pretty slick, and if possible a port of multirom would be a nice thing as well (if possible: don't know if our device is using fstab or rc)

I agree too
Like Paranoid Nexus, there is the chance of chosen rom to work with unlocked bootloader?
I can choice easier if I know which rom has what kind of features.
Actually MIUI seems like a good idea, plus it's a bit different when compared to the AOSP bunch.
Yeah MIUI would be cool, but if not i would love to see carbon or pacman on LBL.
@neXus PRIME
i appreciate your hard work buddy
instead of which rom you compile,i think we need advanced custom kernel like doomkernel...i'm currently using pacman 4.4.4 and none of cutom kernel present on forum does'nt works
Can we have avatar rom!
Avatar, Chameleon, AOSBam, Sonic.....wtf.... so many kangerzzz
But why is PURE AOSP winning out???
Don't know why but vanir being a ubl ROM is really fast and smooth, is it in the ROM or the optimisations by the dev??
In the feature code, ahe has mentioned many compiler optimisations, isbit because of them or the ROM????
I would have said Slimkat if bagyusz doesn't update it, but as of now i don't know if he will.
An update to the latest MIUI would be lovely, locked or unlocked BL is a matter of secondary importance for me
Apart from that Carbon, Vanir and PACman on a stock/stock-based kernel would also be nice

I think that some peoples want to have the android L version. Also they choosed Pure AOSP. This day, Google push the sdk of the android l version.
For android kitkat based, you can do MIUI Rom or if you want an AOSP, you can choose the AOKP.
The problem with android L is we'd have to check the LBL kernel modules we have work on it otherwise its another big job to update (if its even possible).
No L possible. End of story. Just vote the available choices
Well, when I was adding AOSP to the poll I didn't even think of Android L. Maybe I should have written it more precisely.
And yeah, there is a lot of work to do to make L work on LBL. The first thing that's coming to my head are Adreno drivers from 4.3(we are using them in KitKat, so it's not clean and fully working by any means). The second thing is power saving mode in L: we don't know if that's a kernel or OS feature... And there are many things that may result in a complete incompatibility between our kernel and Android L, and changing ramdisks won't help in that case.
Aren't the sources for L coming out in September? Why even talk about it now, wait till the Cyanogen team start to push the first nightlies, then we can put Android 5.0 in the conversation
Hi all, thank you so much for you suggestions and kind attention.
I'm gonna buy this phone soon, I'm new here, I would like to know which is the best ROM suggested here.
For best I mean especially bugless, stable, well optimized, and possibly updated.. what is your experience about? Thanks for sharing
xXx Rom by @xXx ... more to stock rom... always reply/update/discuss about bug etc.. simple stable fast smooth rom...
SM G900F 6.0.1 xXx 4.7.1 Boeffla Beta 5
thank you a lot for answer. I'm a bit confused since Boeffla Beta 5 is just a kernel and I need all package of MM 6.0.1 with hopefully the Boeffla Beta 5 kernel. Where can I find it?
Maybe I've to install any ROM with MM and then install the kernel? (And then gapps).
Thank you a lot

Then name some.
[BIG RANT START] DON'T READ IF YOU'RE TOO SENSIBLE
All roms, they're almost the same. People get the sources, compile it, and release it.. and they all looks like the same.
Every non-stock-based (TW) rom looks and runs almostly identical.. They have almost the same functions, almost the same stability, they share the same "device tree" and kernel.
Even boeffla's kernel has no new features for AGES. And the "developer" just blames Samsung and wash his hands.. (and I have "donated" for his app)
I'm sick of no specific S5 stuff, improvements FOR s5 or performance tweaks FOR s5. I bet they mostly don't even USE a S5 anymore.
Even the ****ing microfone has ultra-low recording volume for AGES and no one cares. They just COMPILE what they DOWNLOAD from others and "release" it here.
And there are people THANKING them for making just this. Come on, it's not a matter of being ungrateful, but to be critical. I don't like mediocrity!
If you appear to be totally satisfied with the **** you're receiving, no one will give you more than ****!
And NO, I don't have to "do better" to complain about it or be critical about it. When did GOD say that you can't complain about something just because you can't do better? or it's just a xda's RULE to be a totally grateful lame fanboy about everything you're getting here? I'm just not mediocre.
But anyway.. peace for all.
On my old LG phone I used to run custom ROMs in order to free-up internal memory & squeeze out more performance (on an aging phone) and to get some additional features (on an aging OS). I haven't bothered to install a custom ROM on my Galaxy S5 because:
1) Stock Android 6.0.1 is really good.
2) Rooting enables you to remove bloatware and free up memory, via Titanium Backup. I've got all the apps I want and no memory shortage.
3) Installing the Xposed framework, and some Xposed apps (especially XtouchWiz) has brought to my GS5 all of the "built-in" features that I'd want from custom ROMs.
4) Custom ROMs tend to be a bit buggy and tend to waste a lot of my time because I have to update the buggy ROMs.
I am now perfectly happy with my GS5 and I can't think of a reason why I'd want to hassle with installing a custom ROM. But that's just me.
This sure turned into a whine fest. Install what you want. The great thing about having custom roms is the ability to flash different builds in order to get the features you want. I prefer stock cm13. Only issue that I have is Bluetooth stuttering on wake. There's it. Everything else is stable and predictable. Using xposed with a few modules adds some features normally in RR or Bliss but with, for me, without the lag.
Why I choose custom over stock? I cannot stand the thought of being locked down to a device I own outright. I should have the right to change my status bar. I should have the right to choose what apps I want on my device. I should have the right after paying 600 at the time to full control over my device.

this became really good thread!! Thank you all for posting your experiences! For me really great and I can save really lot of time!
Please keep posting your choices!
really with Xposed apps is possible to have all features of custom roms?
CM13 is the official stock rom? There is one with root included?
What about "with stock rom you don't have all the control of the phone", is that true even with root?
Thank you
AICP 11
running AICP unofficial on KLTEVZW with unlocked bootloader. Currently have it set up with gestures and all just the way I like. Have flashed a few other 6.0 ROMS but keep coming back to this one. Bluetooth on screen unlock is kinda buggy with screen unlock but is similar to the issues from what I understand with CM13. Android Wear seems to work as it should with first gen Moto 360. I have a note 2014 as well and just use it to stream music to my bluetooth speaker. Tag or PM be and can point you in the right direction if you would like to try it out.

too many
theres just too many but the best ROM i think would be PAC-MAN cuz its got a bit of everything, however i am yet to find a fully working one. closest i could find was Ressurection Remix. its pretty dope.
In my opinion. Tipsy OS

I'll reccomend VanirAOSP. It is pre-rooted, faster and more stable than CM13, and looks quite cool.

vaniraosp lacks lots of features, as I remember..
Im using aokp with no complains ... it seems faster than others with its default kernel..
crazykernel reboots if you change almost any default options, and boeffla's lacks features and has some untested/buggy governors (less than crazykernel though)
it seems real devs are abandoning s5 as everything is just in an alpha stage forever
Trying out a Sprint S4 (non T version), but not thrilled with the performance of the stock 4.4 ROM. Figured maybe 5+ would be an improvement, but wanted to go with something built for speed and efficiency (ie. not full of bloat) rather than let it update itself.
From what I've read, most people seemed to recommend Dirty Unicorns as a fairly clean and speedy ROM. I'm not looking for heavy modifications and skins or anything like that. Those kinds of things turn me off.
But, it seems that Dirty Unicorns is no longer supported on the S4, the links in the official thread are broken and the DU website doesn't list the S4 as a supported device... oddly, none of the Galaxy phones are listed as supported devices. Were we dropped? What happened? Is it still out there somewhere? Is there any other similar ROM that folks recommend?
I've got TWRP ready to go!

BlissPop is a great 5.1.1 ROM, CM13 is also a good 6.0.1 option. If TW is your thing, WickedX is your best 5.0.1 choice.

I don't particularly care for TW or not, I just want to make sure everything works as well as possible (sometimes AOSP roms need to be coaxed into working more than ones based on stock). Also things like Samsung's pedometer (S Health) have replaced my fitbit, and I'm hoping whatever ROM I install will still work with it.
Meanwhile, I can't believe I forgot about CM! I should have thought of that first. Those are always solid once they are officially supported by CM! But I wonder- is CM12 better on this hardware than CM13? In my experience over the years, I've often found that ROMs based on versions officially supported by the device worked better than ones that were pushing newer versions. At least CM12 is based on Lollipop, which IS available for this phone officially. But then again, this is CM we're talking about. If 13 works well, I have no qualms using it. Any advice on that one way or the other?

I haven't had any real problems on stock CM 13(officially supported device), I run SynergyOS which is cm based so I can undervolt and underclock. You can get S Health on CM ROMs if you go that route.

hello,
I have seen a topic here before about AOSP based ROM for S8(Exynos), but still can't find any after all that time.
So i was wondering if anyone or any team is working on it? or anyone want to?
I really like AOSP and if i know that no one working on it, maybe i'll teach myself and do it.
Unofficial port is available for s8 but alot of bugs its alpha... Not usabld as a daily driver...dont bother to flash
